Dynamic Pricing
ARC’s policy is to set ticket prices based on demand, like budget airlines, which means we set a price when the event goes on sale and then sometimes put the price up or down depending on how the show is selling. Usually, the price will increase as we get closer to the event, so it is advantageous to book in advance, although sometimes we will put special offers on and reduce the price. Our website will always show the current ticket price.
ARC’s theatre and dance performances are priced on a Pay What You Decide basis, which means you don’t have to pay until after you have seen a show!
We want to encourage more people to come and see shows at ARC, more often. Pay What You Decide not only allows you to pay what you can afford, rather than a fixed ticket price, but also removes the financial risk of buying a ticket for a show in advance without knowing whether you are going to enjoy it or not.
Tickets are available to book in advance as usual, but there is no obligation for you to pay until after you have seen the show. You can then decide on a price which you think is suitable based on your experience, which means if you haven’t enjoyed it at all, you don’t have to pay anything.
All money collected will help ARC pay the artists who have performed, and we therefore hope you will give generously.
Please ensure you have arrived and collected your tickets 15 minutes before the show starts in order to secure your seats. At the end of the show, you can decide what to pay, either by cash on the door or by card at the Box Office.

BBFC Ratings Info (May Contain Spoilers)
drugs
Scenes throughout the film show a young child and an older teen dealing drugs and maintaining an illegal marijuana farm.
sexual violence and sexual threat
There are scenes of strong sexual threat in which a man extorts a teenager to perform fellatio on him and to take off her clothes while he films her; however, the sexual violence itself occurs off screen. In another scene people smugglers subject the teen to an invasive search of her underwear in order to take the money she has concealed on her person.
threat and horror
Vulnerable young people are exploited, threatened and subjected to violence by ruthless criminals.
There are upsetting scenes and sequences of moderate violence. A teenager is shown hyperventilating during panic attacks, and in another scene she repeatedly bangs her head against a hard surface while in a state of distress, creating a small bloody cut on her forehead. A white man refers to a pair of African refugees as ‘the blacks’. Infrequent bad language includes ‘shit’, ‘bastard’ and ‘screw’.
